I would make it so radio stations and broadcasters can’t play Christmas music until after Thanksgiving, if they do, they’ll get a 1000 dollar fine.

Its only a Crime when your actions harm OTHERS. Any action that harms yourself is legal (ie drug use, public nudity, daredevil behaviour, etc).
HARM includes child/animal abuse, neglect, etc.
Harm reduction and rehab rather than incarceration.
All children to receive free dental/health/eyecare until adulthood
K-12 education to focus on "how to learn", critical thinking, and life skills rather than obscure 16th century poets

If anyone hurts an animal or a child whatever they did is to be done to them three times.

I already said this, but it got downvoted. I’d outlaw homophobia, transphobia, and racism. I know phobias are often legit, but as a member of the lgbtq+ community, I’m allowed to be killed in 13 countries and 38 states if my identity “causes a sudden emotional reaction.” So yeah, homophobia is illegal now.

I would outlaw 24-hour-a-day cable news channels.
Additionally, for internet news, you have to read the article and answer a short comprehension quiz about it before you can see the video news report.

I would make one law, and it would be: Under no circumstances am I to be permitted to become president.

I would first require all single use containers, packaging and bags to be made out of materials that are 100% biodegradable. Even waterproof containers need to be able to break down to bio friendly matter within five years. Containers for long term storage would be a separate matter, and could use non degradable materials. But straws, coffe lids, soda bottles, sandwich bags, to go containers, plastic cutlery, product presentation materials......it all needs to be biodegradable.

#19

Death taxes. You should be able to earn as much as you want with fairly minimal income taxes. However, you should only be able to leave say 10 million per dependent, all the rest should go to healthcare/education etc. I think this might be the best way to reduce wealth inequality without penalizing people for being productive. Inherited wealth doesn't do society OR those who inherit massive unearned fortunes good in the long run imo.

#20

Separation of church and state with real consequences for violations. Churches, politicians and faith based organizations would be fined for every attempt at pushing their agenda in the world. Also churches would pay taxes.
